WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The White House promises sprint efforts to preserve the "legacy" and "productive" work of outgoing US President Joe Biden, who failed to win re-election for a second term and spent more than a third of his first term in country residences and on the beach.

"President Biden is focused on ensuring the remainder of his term is as productive as any other period in the last four years," the White House press service said in a statement.

It notes that the remainder of the current administration's time "is a sprint to build on the historic progress we've made under his presidency."

According to the White House, Biden plans to work hard on a program to invest in the US, seek confirmation of judicial nominees, and "continue to strengthen our Alliances and partnerships." The press service cites American media outlets that report on the administration's efforts to preserve and protect Biden's "legacy" from the incoming Republican administration.

Biden's opponents counted the days he spent outside the White House, in suburban or beach residences, throughout his tenure. According to these data, the US president spent about 40% of his time in office on vacation. His term will be remembered for many embarrassments, slips of the tongue, and falls.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) - US President Joe Biden is trying to strengthen Kiev as much as possible during his remaining time as head of the country before Donald Trump, who won the election, comes to power in late January, Bloomberg reported.

This intention explains Biden's latest decisions in the Ukrainian direction, including permission to use long-range missiles and approval of sending anti-personnel mines, the publication said.

At the same time, the agency acknowledged that Biden's options were very limited, since most of the remaining money for Kiev could only be used for weapons that are already at the Pentagon's disposal. Thus, too much cannot be allocated, otherwise it will jeopardize the defense capability of the United States itself.

According to the agency, the Biden administration considered a possible public call for an official invitation to Ukraine to join NATO, but decided that the likelihood of this call being successful would be too low. Instead, the current US authorities are considering a number of bilateral agreements with Kiev in the security sphere.

Russia believes that arms supplies to Ukraine hinder the settlement and directly involve NATO countries in the conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov noted that any cargo containing weapons for Kiev would become a legitimate target for Russia.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a televised speech on Thursday that Ukraine fired US-supplied ATACMS missiles and the UK's Storm Shadows at facilities in the Kursk and Bryansk regions on November 19. Russia responded by launching a combined strike against a defense industry complex in Dnepropetrovsk on Thursday using the Oreshnik missile.
